Okay, here is a place for the Golfers to talk about tournaments, clubs, swing help or thoughts.
Today is the Players Championship, which I think ought to be the 5th Major. Largest pot in the PGA. The daunting 17th, which seems to bring excitement every year. At least we will get to see Sergio blow up yet again.

Cutting at .09 of an inch, and verticutting several times throughout the year.
If you're able to keep them at .09 this time of year, awesome. I just come up again last week because of the heat. [Reply]
Epic choke job. It was his and then he blows another short one on 11 and it was all done.
Clarke got a couple of tremendous breaks today. His balls skirting the bunkers saved him probably 3+ shots.
I think Phil missed 6 putts inside of three feet this week. It's all on him, but he's an idiot for going with Dave Stockton and that forward press. It throws the line and speed way too much on short putts. [Reply]
Phil's swing also got really loose on the last several holes.
As far as greens go, the problems with the greens that I play is that they are bumpy in spots due to jackasses not repairing pitch marks.
Most courses are going to a more economical approach in regards to maintenance, but that doesn't match up with bent grass greens. They can't survive in Midwestern summers without a ton of water. [Reply]
